Unless you have a lathe, cutting out 32 wooden wheels will be difficult. However, it is a very effective way to shape any dimension you need. If you are interested in ordering plastic wheels, try the Surplus Centre: _http://surpluscenter.com/sort.asp?UID=2009011318183561&catname=wheels&keyword =TWSR_ (http://surpluscenter.com/sort.asp?UID=2009011318183561&catname=wheels&keyword=TWSR) I ordered a handful of 3.5" solid wheels CHEAP and they arrived in good sh ape. Fortunately, they are exactly 1:6 scale of the Sherman HVSS bogies so....I need to order 18 more. Watch out, though: even if wheels are cheap, they can be expencive in large groups. - On Tue, Jan 13, 2009 at 4:51 PM, <[email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) > wrote: Hello all, Has anyone ever used anything like 1/2 "V" belt for their guide teeth in their track. I have 32 wheels made up out of 9 mm plywood. I was thinking that there may be less wear on the plywood wheels if this method was used. Speaking of wheels, I really don't know if I should use the plywood wheels I have or buy some of the wheels like Joe has on his Hetzer? 32 wheels that are done vs. $3.00 per wheel like Joe's??? Bob "I got to get this tank done for this season" Amend member PUFF ah man, and i have all of 32 or so of my wheels cast :) Chris, _Odyssey Slipways_ (http://hometown.aol.com/odysseyslipways/index.html) **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above.
